DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of thepresent disclosure clearer, the embodiments of the present disclosureare described in detail below with reference to the accompanyingdrawings. However, one of ordinary skill in the art may understand that,in various embodiments of the present disclosure, many technical detailsare set forth in order to provide the reader with a better understandingof the present application. However, the technical solutions claimed inthe present application may be implemented without these technicaldetails and according to various changes and modifications based on thefollowing embodiments.

As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4B, the present disclosure provides a tilefixing device 5 for fixing the tile 1 to a building, the tile fixingdevice 5 comprising: a slider 3, at least a portion of the slider 3being disposed below the tile 1; a connector 2, at least a portion ofthe connector 2 being disposed above the tile 1, and the connector 2being connected to the slider 3 so as to hold the tile 1 between the atleast a portion of the connector 2 and the at least a portion of theslider 3; and a fixing beam 4 configured to be fixed on the building(not shown), and the slider 3 being hung on the fixing beam 4 so as tofix the tile 1 on the building. The fixing beam 4 is preferably fixed ona sloping surface of the building, for example on the roof of a house.The tile 1 is fixed to the building by this tile fixing device 5, thatis to say, the tile 1 is fixed to be parallel to the slopping surface ofthe building. The tile 1 is hung on the fixing beam 4 by the slider 3connected to the tile 1, so that the tile 1 may be naturally hungsecurely on the fixing beam 4 under the force of gravity. In the tilefixing device 5 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure,in order to facilitate removal of the tile 1 from the fixing beam 4, thefixing beam 4 is provided with a sliding groove 41 extending in adirection at a certain angle to a longitudinal direction of the fixingbeam 4 and running through the fixing beam 4, and the certain angle isgreater than 0 degree and less than 180 degrees, and moreover, thelongitudinal direction of the fixing beam 4 extends in a horizontaldirection. The slider 3 is configured to be rotated such that the slider3 can slide along the sliding groove 41 and slide out of the slidinggroove 41 so as to detach the slider 3 from the fixing beam 4 and removethe tile 1. As shown in FIG. 2A, FIG. 2B, FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B, thefixing beam 4 is fixed to the roof with its longitudinal direction beingparallel to the horizontal direction, so that the slider 3 may besecurely hung on the fixing beam 4 under gravity and may not slide inthe longitudinal direction of the fixing beam 4. In addition, the fixingbeam 4 is provided with the sliding groove 41 extending in a directionat the certain angle to the longitudinal direction (i.e. horizontaldirection) of the fixing beam 4, and by setting this angle to be not 0degree or 180 degrees, the sliding groove 41 is not parallel to thehorizontal direction. Therefore, when the tile 1 is slid out of thesliding groove 41, by means of gravity, the tile 1 may smoothly slidedownwards in the sliding groove 41, thereby saving labor costs. Inaddition, by arranging the slider 3 to be able to rotate to slide alongthe sliding groove 41, in order to slide the slider 3 out of the slidinggroove 41 and accordingly remove the tile 1, it is not necessary to liftup the tile 1 laboriously, but it only needs to rotate the slider 3 whenremoving the tile 1.

The tile 1 is, for example, a photovoltaic tile. However, in the presentdisclosure, the tile 1 is not limited to a photovoltaic tile, a portionof which used for generating electricity is a crystalline silicon solarmodule or a flexible solar module.

In an embodiment according to the present disclosure, the connector 2 isdetachably connected to the slider. As shown in FIGS. 2A, 2B and 5, theconnector 2 includes a body part 23 which is a body part in the form ofa pillar extending from a position above the tile 1 and through the tile1; and a plug part 22 fixed to a lower end of the body part 23. Thecross section of the plug part 22 is of polygonal shape such as arectangle, a square and the like. Correspondingly, the slider 3comprises a receptacle part 32 for receiving the plug part 22 and havinga shape that matches the shape of the plug part 22. In addition, athrough-hole 221 is disposed on the plug part 22, and two correspondingthrough holes 321 are also formed in two sidewalls of the receptaclepart 32 opposite to the plug part 22. Fastener (not shown), such as pinsor bolts, may pass through the through-holes 321 and 221 such that theconnector 2 is connected to the slider 3 and may not be removed from theslider 3. When disassembling, the fastener described above may beremoved from through-holes 321 and 221 first, and the plug part 22 maythen be pulled out of the receptacle part 32.

In another embodiment, the above-described through-holes 321 and 221 maynot be provided. Alternatively, the connector 2 includes a threaded holeextending through the body part 23 and the plug part 22, and the slider3 also includes a threaded hole provided therein. In addition, theconnector 2 also includes threaded fastener that mate to the threadedholes described above to connect the connector 2 to the slider 3. Whendisassembling, the fastener may be unscrewed to allow slider 3 andconnector 2 to disengage from each other.

In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIGS. 2A, 2Band 5, the connector 2 further includes a rotation driving part 21configured to rotate the slider 3 by rotating the rotation driving part21. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 5, therotation driving part 21, in the form of handle, is preferably fixedlydisposed on the at least a portion of the connector 2 above the tile 1,more preferably fixedly disposed on a portion of the body part 23 abovethe tile 1. By rotating the rotation driving part 21, the plug part 22may be driven to rotate. By the mating of the plug part 22 and thereceptacle part 32, the slider 3 may be driven to rotate together.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotation drivingpart may be a rotation groove (not shown) formed on an upper surface ofthe body part 23. The slider 3 may be rotated either electrically ormanually by using other tools, such as electric drills or screwdrivers.

It should be noted that although the above description only describestwo types of rotation driving part, such as in the form of a handle or arotation groove, those skilled in the art may envisage other knownrotation driving parts such as a torsion spring provided on theconnector or the slider. When the torsion spring is triggered, it maybring the slider to rotate. The above-mentioned rotation driving meansshould fall within the scope of the present disclosure.

In one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 5, theslider 3 includes a vertical body 33 extending along a longitudinaldirection of the slider 3 and at least one flange 31 protrudinglaterally from the vertical body 33. Preferably, the flange 31 extendsin a direction perpendicular to the vertical body 33. The fixing beam 4further comprises at least one recess 42 configured to mate with the atleast one flange 31 and extend in the longitudinal direction of thefixing beam 4. The tile 1 is hung on the fixing beam 4 by means ofmating between the at least one flange 31 of the slider 3 and the atleast one recess 42 of the fixing beam 4. In one embodiment according tothe present disclosure, it is preferable that the number of the flanges31 is two, each of which protrudes laterally on one side of the verticalbody 33. It is preferable for the flange 31 to protrude laterally fromthe bottom of the vertical body 33 for the reason which will bedescribed in detail later. In addition, those skilled in the art shouldunderstand that, in order to enable the slider 3 to slide in the slidinggroove 41, the maximum width in the protruding direction of the flange31 should be equal to or smaller than the width of the sliding groove41. Preferably, the extension length of the flange 31 in thelongitudinal direction of the slide 3 is equal to the length of thevertical body 33, as shown in FIG. 5.

As shown in FIGS. 3A, 3B, 4A and 4B, in an embodiment of the presentdisclosure, a length of the vertical body 33 of the slider 3 in thelongitudinal direction of the slider 3 is greater than a width of thesliding groove 41 in a direction perpendicular to a sliding-outdirection in which the slider 3 slides out of sliding groove 41. Whenthe tile 1 is hung on the fixing beam 4, the slider 3 is preferablylocated at a position opposite to the sliding groove 41, so that when itis necessary to remove the tile 1, the tile 1 does not need to berelocated to a position opposite to the sliding groove 41, so that thethrough-holes on the tile 1 corresponds to the position of the slidinggrooves 41 on the fixing beam 4 when manufacturing the tile 1. At thistime, since the length of the body 33 is larger than the width of thesliding groove 41, the body 33 is pressed against a side of the slidinggroove 41 under the gravity of the tile 1 and may not slide out from thesliding groove 41 of the fixing beam 4, thereby achieving the effect offixing the tilel. When it is necessary to remove the tile 1, the slider3 may be rotated by rotating the rotation driving part 21 so that theflange 31 is located in the sliding groove 41, and the slider 3 may beslid out of the sliding groove 41so as to remove the tile 1.

In a preferred embodiment according to the present disclosure, as shownin FIGS. 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4A, 4B, 6 and 7, the sliding groove 41 isperpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the fixing beam 4. Inthis case, the slide-out direction of the slider 3 is perpendicular tothe longitudinal direction of the fixing beam 4. Therefore, the flange31 of the slider 3 mates with the sliding groove 41 after the slider 3is rotated by 90 degrees from the position where the flange 31 and therecess 42 mate with each other, so that the slide 3 may slide in thesliding groove 41 and be slid out of the sliding groove 41. With thesliding groove 41 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of thefixing beam 4, when the slider 3 is rotated such that the flange 31mates with the sliding groove 41, by making full use of the gravity, theslider 3 may be smoothly slid out of sliding groove 41 in a directionperpendicular to the horizontal direction and parallel to the sloppingsurface of the building. In addition, the 90-degree angle is easier tobe recognized in the case of manual operation, thereby facilitatingoperator's operation.

In an embodiment according to the present disclosure, as shown in FIG.6, a plurality of sliding grooves 41 are provided on the fixing beam 4at equal intervals, and the recess 42 extends in the longitudinaldirection of the fixing beam 4 and is formed as a whole elongate recess,which is in communication with each sliding groove 41 provided on thefixing beam 4. Preferably, the fixing beam is made of wood, aluminumalloy or steel. In addition, those skilled in the art will appreciatethat in order to facilitating the entrance of the slider 3 to thesliding groove 41, a bottom of the sliding groove 41 is flush with aninner surface of the recess 42 so that before the slider 3 enters thesliding groove 41, the inner surface of the recess 42 may function as aflat guide surface.

In another embodiment according to the present disclosure, as shown inFIG. 7, a plurality of recesses 42 that are not in communication witheach other are provided on the fixing beam 4 in the longitudinaldirection thereof, and each recess 42 is only in communication with acorresponding one of the sliding grooves 41.

In another aspect of the present disclosure, a method for disassemblingthe tile 1 fixed by the above-described tile fixing device 5 isprovided. The disassembling method includes the following step: rotatingthe connector 2 such that the slider 3 is driven to rotate to a positionwhere the slider 3 mates with the sliding groove 41 and is capable ofsliding in the sliding groove 41, so as to slide the slider 3 out of thesliding groove 41 and remove the tile 1 from the fixing beam 4.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the above mentioned methodfurther comprises the step of pushing the tile 1, in a directionparallel to the slopping surface of the building, to detach the slider 3from the fixing beam 4 before rotating the connector 2. Here, the reasonwhy the tile needs to be pushed is as follows: When the slider 3 is hungon the fixing beam 4, the vertical body 33 of the slider 3 is pressedagainst the side of the sliding groove 41, so that in this state, due tothe block of the fixing beam 4, it is difficult to rotate the slider 3,and it is necessary to push the slider 3 off the fixing beam 4 first.Since the tile 1 itself is supported on the fixing beam 4, when the tile1 is pushed upwards in parallel with the building's slopping surface,the tile 1 is smoothly pushed upward without significant displacement ina direction perpendicular to the slopping surface, thereby facilitatingthe pushing operation and producing no significant vibration on the tile1. In addition, the flange 31 of the slider 3 preferably protrudeslaterally from the bottom of the vertical body 31, and in this preferredembodiment, after the slider 3 is pushed away from the fixing beam 4 andafter the slider 3 is rotated into alignment with the sliding groove 41,it is possible to slide the flange 31 directly into the sliding groove41 without any block by smoothly sliding the tile 1 downwards, withoutadditional adjustment of the position of the flange 31 with respect tothe sliding groove 41 in a direction perpendicular to the roof, sincethe flange 31 is flush with the bottom of the vertical body 31 and thereis no significant displacement of the tile 1 in the directionperpendicular to the roof during pushing.

In addition, in the disassembling method according to the presentdisclosure, since the tile adjacent to the tile to be removed generallyrests directly on the tile to be removed, when the tile 1 to be removedis pushed upward, it is necessary to slightly lift up the tile adjacentto the tile 1 to be removed so that the tile 1 may be pushed upward tosome extent. However, those skilled in the art will also recognize thatit is also feasible not to lift up the tile adjacent to the damagedtile. Then, the slider 3 is rotated so that its flange 31 may be slidinto the sliding groove 41, and the slider 3 is then smoothly slid outof the sliding groove 41 by the force of gravity so as to remove thetile 1. Therefore, in this disassembling method, in order to remove thedamaged tile 1 from the fixing beam 4, all one has to do is to simplypush the tile 1 upward, rotate the connector 2 and slide the tile 1downward smoothly.

An embodiment of the method of the present disclosure is described asfollows:

To replace one of the damaged tile 1, the tile 1 can be removed from thefixing beam 4, by simply pushing the tile 1 obliquely upwards, rotatingthe slider 3 by a certain angle by the rotation driving part 21 (theangle is preferably 90 degrees), pulling the tile 1 obliquely downwards,and then raising the tile 1 on the left side thereof, for example, whenabout three-fourths area of the tile 1 has been pulled out. By means ofthe present disclosure, it is quite easy to perform the maintenance andreplacement of the tile 1.

Although the present disclosure has been described with reference to theaccompanying drawings, the embodiments disclosed in the drawings areintended to illustrate the preferred embodiments of the presentdisclosure, and should not be construed as limiting the presentdisclosure.

While some embodiments according to the general concept of the presentdisclosure have been shown and described, it will be appreciated bythose of ordinary skill in the art that various changes to theseembodiments may be made without departing from the spirit and scope ofthe general inventive concept.
